[ALL THE THINGS]

Well yesterday I had to visit another Museum!

This one however had a kind of Natural History - Oxford Equivalent, so it was really quite interesting! 

Lots of skeletons of various creatures.. including a T-Rex...WHICH WAS HUGE.

There was loads of different stuffed animals. Red Panda!! They remind me of my Cat cause his face is a little like theirs..apart from it's flat from the side.

HAPPY LOOKING BEAVER. I completely didn't notice the naked lade behind it on the painting...

After having wanted hot food and a sit down meal, it was decided that we would go to this cool Grill place. 

NOMMY DESSERT.

Later the joys of NO AIR, NO LIFE. Were discovered..I NEED THAT DVD. Dear God it hurt to laugh after watching!!!

Now to get back to my Japanese work!

ロンドンへいきましょう！

Today, I had to visit The British Museum. It was a compulsory trip due to a top up module I took this semester for extra credit. Aptly named, "Museums and Society" - I'm sure to most this must be the most boring thing in the world, and I'll be honest this trip today seemed pointless as we were talked at for an hour and a half, then told to look into the meaning of some things which really didn't need meanings attached to them. Hmm. University lecturers sure make you think, although not always on the most necessary of subjects.

I got to see a Crystal Skull from Europe, it looks like a glacier mint...

And this adorable bugger, it's a Japanese ivory carved Skull with a little Lizard on top. Fuck, I wanted to take it home with me it was so cute! 

Me and my Uni friends ventured to JP Books, Japan Centre and China Town before the museum! Where I purchased my first ever Kera magazine!! I have always been interested in the scans and fashion featured in the Magazine but never picture up a physical copy. Safe to say I will most likely be picking one up each months from now onwards. So full of beautiful things!! 

There was also another beautiful thing lurking in the adverts....JUN!! From Golden Bomber advertising MINTneko. I have the Mint Sixh. Necklace but maybe I can get some more accessories from Japan in summer!

A cheaper version of Ramune..and tastes better..this was peach flavoured.

A MOTHER FUCKING PANDA WAFER CHOCOLATE THING. IT WAS DELICIOUS AND ONLY 66P.

ULTIMATE BARGAIN.

My second lesson of the new semester today - It was good!
I very much like what I am doing with my life right now, learning Japanese and being here at University is possibly one of the best choices I have made so far.

It's just a shame I am rubbish at social interactions!
There are some pretty interesting people in my Classes, I just don't have the guts to talk to them properly.
I may not appear shy, in fact I most likely appear cold, in reality I really am just scared of what to say in case it's uninteresting or absurd.

Maybe this will mend itself in time?
Already since being here I am a lot better than I ever was.

What a triumphant way to start 2012, than the new episode of Sherlock.
Sheer perfection in a television series.

Most other things I watch now seem simply inferior. Moffat you genius.

Well, on to other things,
I've been at "home" since the 19th now, and it seems to be going quicker than I expected.
Living out of boxes and bags is frustrating.
But I seem to be spending most hours of my days playing Zelda: Skyward Sword, and staring longingly at the bottle of Jack Daniels sitting on the mantel piece in my room.

I have no idea what I am doing the rest of the week, but at some point I should attempt some of the Japanese work I have been given for the holidays.

Unfortunately at the minute summoning the want to do so is a nigh impossible task.
But I'll get it done, quite possibly in one day if I can be bothered.

Until the next time.
